i'll probably get this patched in since i won't have the ESP anytime soon.
will i have to back the patch out when i do get the ESP, or will it work
with the patch in?

i'd rather not talk about it!! :)  (i have patched WAY too much linux stuff)
i'm not a new user, i'm just new to NetBSD in particular, my first UNIX box
(oh, i guess about 7 years ago now) was an IBM RT running BSD 4.3  :)  it is
buried in a closet somewhere, maybe i should make that run again.  anyone
have any spare (meaning free) ESDI drives??
